What I'm Thankful For

So this might be a little late, but better late than never huh?  This year I put a list on the fridge, and challenged myself to think of one thing I'm thankful for for every day of November leading up until Thanksgiving Day.  It really inspired me to look at everything I have, and not so much at what I think is missing.  (I hate pessimistic people, but at times, I tend to be one myself.  Now there's some irony for you!)  So, I set out to be honest.  And it was a little hard on those days when everything seemed to go wrong.  But I did it!  And I love looking at my list of everything I have to be thankful for.  So here it is:

1) A loving Husband who supports me in everything I do.
2) Parker--I couldn't ask for a more wonderful child.
3) The ability to be a  Stay at Home Mom.
4) A beautiful Home.
5) Hugs and Kisses
6) Netflix!
7) Loving Parents
8) Amazing In-Laws (who treat me like their own!)
9) Playtime with Parker
10) My Camera
11) Veterans--Thank you so much for protecting our freedom!
12) Cookies--(Can you tell this was one of those rough days!)
13) Photoshop
14) A HEALTHY baby.  I know that not all are as fortunate as we are, and my heart aches for those who have to watch their children be sick.
15) Warm Sweaters
16) Awesome Friends--I love you all!
17) Red Velvet Cake--need I say more?
18) Pizza--(yet another rough day here)
19) Cooler weather
20) My favorite sister.  (Kayla wrote this one for me, but I am really thankful for her!)
21) Squeezes from Parker
22) Our Church Family
23) The Internet--without which my house would be spotless, and I would be bored to tears!)
24) Pepsi
25) Christmas Movies on TV
26) Family Get-Togethers!
